LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 11, which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.

LineageOS is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

All the source code for LineageOS is available in the LineageOS Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to LineageOS, please visit out Gerrit Code Review. You can also view the Changelog for a full list of changes & features.

Thanks for your efforts on building and sharing the lineage os.
Thanks unfortunately, its causing a bootloop.

Everything went well and build was successful but still its not booting.

I am still figuring out root causes of the bootloop. Maybe problem with vendor blobs.

I will rebuild once again tomorrow with different vendor blobs.

sorry to ask.
What is this rom?
The official version is no longer supported.
What do you do to the rom?
What do you add?
would be to update on the official 18.1 without losing anything?

What is this rom ? --> Unofficial ROM build using LineageOS source code (Just a hobby project), They always merge monthly security patch to all active branch, like LOS 17.1, LOS 18.1, LOS 19.1 and LOS 20,
The official version is no longer supported. --> Yes, thats because LOS team started testing LOS 20 and they can only maintain two OS build (Currently LOS 19.1 and LOS 20)
What do you do to the rom? --> For now sync with latest LineageOS source code to build ROM for whyred with monthly security update, If possible will try to build LOS 19.1
latest build has december security patch
What do you add? --> Currently nonw
would be to update on the official 18.1 without losing anything? --> You mean update from official rom to unofficial rom ? i dont think it will work so i dont recommend updating from official rom to unofficial rom

if the rom is the same and you only add security patches, why can't you update it?
it should work right?

    hello. i don't know if others have noticed.
    that's what I can tell you.
    with the rom of the 18th, I have a similar duration to the official rom.
    With the rom of the 22nd, it lasts less.
    that's why I have installed your rom, but the rom of the day 18.
    I think i have corrected the battry isssue

    There was some difference in sdm660-common source

    Now battry remains on 68% throughout the night

    Initially 2% drop from 70 to 68% but after that battery remains same

    Now build is using everything from the official source including vendor blobs from official LOS build 20221024

    This is my test build with chromium webview 113
    Because official lineage chromium_webview apk file is corrupted and builds are failing

    @SunilSuni thanks for your great work. After lineage official ends i move for A13 roms. I tested almost all and the battery drain was really unbelievable...
    Finding your lineage releases saved my whyred... Great work!!

    Any change to port Lineage 19 or 20 for this device?
    I had zero luck in building LineageOS 20, Because my build always failed at kernel
    I almost tried every kernel out there but all kernel failed to build with LineageOS 20 and i didnt get proper time to research so i halted that.

    I will see what i can do for successfully building lineageos 20 from next week onwards

    Wasn't the 22nd version released to fix a problem with bluetooth?
    that could be where the problem is coming from.
    I don't use bluetooth, except when I use my car.
    I always have it turned off.
    but I can confirm, and I confirm, that being on the official rom, it lasts me 3 days, and using the day 22, it lasts me 2 days.
    now i have put yours from the 18th, and everything is back to normal.
    The bad thing will be when you take the next update, but come that day, we will try.
    isn't it supposed that this rom that you prepare, is the official one adding the security patches only?
    Yes i am just updating lineageos source to get security patch and other system app updates.

    22 build is supposed to be same as official as everything is build based on the official sources (device, kernel and vendor)

    I will clean up everything (soong build leftovers) and rebuild once again
